Great Grandma Marsha took the pictures below at Erika & Matt's Bridal Shower. I was so glad she did because we didn't take the time out to take very many pic's of Teagy this month.Some cute chubby, diaper pics of Teagy crawling around and banging on the gate that goes down to the stairs.Cute little chunker-meister! I was trying to take the following pic's to show you his 2 newest teeth on the bottom. The flash must've been really weird because all the pictures are really blurry. But at least you can still see those 2 toothies coming in.

My in-laws already have fun toys for Teagan to ride when he gets a little bigger.I just can't get over how big of a kid Teag is. Little did I know 7 months ago that he'd be almost the same size he is right now at 14 months.I sure love this little kid!

Teag had his 6 month appointment and check up. He weighed in at 19lbs 6oz and is 27 3/4 inches long. He's wearing 12 month old clothes already. Wowza! I thought we had enough clothes to last him a whole year and I was way wrong. Also, since he's grown so fast, I have the sizes and seasons of clothes mixed up, so we've had to buy him more clothes. He only had 12 month old winter clothes and they are of course too warm to wear in 100 degree weather.

I still can't get over how Teagan is already half way to his 1st Birthday. It's going by so fast.

So we packed in a fun filled summer in 2 weeks. We told Grandma Vanda we'd come and visit her in Twin Falls, ID and decided to take little Ashy along with us to visit too. Ashy was so good the whole trip and was very helpful with Teagan. It was Teagy's first road trip and of course he was teething with his first little tooth which came through while we were there. So, it was a little harder with the teething. He also learned to roll over during this trip, so we had some major milestones during the trip.

We got to go see the Twin Falls while we were there. OMG! They were beautiful! The pictures don't do them justice of the grandeur we saw. We were getting soaking wet from all the water that was in the air. Here are a couple of pic's we took at the look out.

Then with in a couple days of us getting back from Twin Falls, we were on our long awaited trip to Bear Lake for the 4th of July. We had been planning this trip for a year. It was nice to be able to invite our family and friends up to stay with us. Unfortunately we didn't take very many pictures. Thank you to Joey and Nadia for the couple of snap shots they took on their phone.

We got to stay in our time share and it was freaking AWESOME! This was our first time to use it, so we weren't sure what to expect, but we reserved the 3 bedroom/2 bathroom Pent House Suite and it was bigger than our house. It was almost 2000 square feet with fireplace, full kitchen, full furnished with all amenities including cooking/eating utensils, washer/dryer, BBQ'r, you name it. It had a balcony that had a great view of the lake and lots of room for everyone's stuff.

Teagy took his first boat ride. We also found that he gets very sea sick like his mom. He had a blank stare the way I do when I feel motion sick. To say the least, mom and Teagy didn't stay long on the boat with everyone.

The boat ride was very eventful. Jeremy broke boat propellers and had to get the fixed. And everyone else got to ride on water weenies and knee boards. Then on another day we got jet ski's to race around on. After our bad boat experience though, I don't think that we will ever get one again.

We went on a family trip in these little self propelled bike carts (i can't remember what they are really called). It was funny! Each family (The Green's, The Humpherys' and The Calls) had their little cart and we pedaled hard ... all the way to get Bear Lakes famous raspberry ice cream. ha ha Teagy got to ride in the front basket. I couldn't stop laughing. PS. Yes, I know I look terrible.

(I'm not sure why I don't know where any of the other pictures are... these are the only one's I could find from both of the trips. Sad.)

It was fun to hang out at the lake with friends for the last part. The Humpherys family including the grandparents came up for the first part of the week and then Nate stopped by because he happened to be up there at his family's cabin and Angie & Bear and Joey & Nadia came up to chill and eat food and stay a few nights with us. We had soooo much food! I made lots of casseroles to bring up. I wish I would've taken a picture of how packed everyone's car was. I planned on feeding an army for a week so I can't explain to you how much food I made and how many drinks and snacks we brought with us; not to mention the games and entertainment we packed along. At any rate, we had a really great experience and hope to make it a tradition. I think everyone had a good time too!

Well, the Kig of Pop is dead! What a shocker. We were on our trip to Bear Lake and watched his funeral service over the weekend. When we found out we were in Twin Falls, ID we listened to Michael J songs all the way home. I don't really have a lot of thoughts on the whole Michael thing, other than it's weird how big he was world wide and my kids will not even have been around to know the legacy when he started out big. I hope that they still know and appreciate his music though.

So the video I took is too large to load, but here are a couple of video shots of Teagan gagging when I fed him rice cereal for the first time. He didn't like it very much. He started to gag every time I even showed him the spoon. It was so dang funny!
